SUMMARY:Spring Awakening  - Ferrell Studios
DESCRIPTION:Spring Awakening is a groundbreaking rock musical with music by Duncan Sheik and book and lyrics by Steven Sater\, adapted from the controversial 1891 play by Frank Wedekind. Set in a repressive 19th-century German society\, the show follows a group of teenagers as they discover the complexities of their changing bodies\, desires\, and identities in a world that refuses to educate or support them. The story examines the tragic consequences of ignorance\, censorship\, and societal shame surrounding sex and mental health. With a powerful alternative rock score\, Spring Awakening bridges the past and present\, giving voice to young people silenced for generations. \nContent Warning: Spring Awakening contains mature themes including sexual content\, abuse\, suicide\, and strong language. Recommended for ages 18 and up. Viewer discretion is advised. \nFour Shows: \nFriday\, March 20th: 8 pm \nSaturday March 21st: 2 pm & 8 pm \nSunday March 22nd: 2 pm \n \n			\n				Tickets - Click Here
